New Members??

« on: January 15, 2007, 10:59:13 AM »

Hi Richard,

Have noticed there have been a recent spate of new members - but strangely, their email addresses suggest that they hail from RUSSIA?!

This is a Melbourne, AUSTRALIA, forum.

We haven't heard anything from these people - could they be spammers? Or perhaps just interested - encourage them to participate, introduce themselves?

Cheers,
A.

Yeah, most of them are spammers - and they haven't been allowed onto the forum.

Unfortunately, the forum will display them as new members just because they've requested an account, even before they're been authorised.

No one can join the forum without one of the administrators specifically allowing them.

Hope that explains it!
